It’s Tartt—But
Is It Art?: No one denies that Donna Tartt has written the “It
novel” of the year, a runaway best-seller that won her the Pulitzer Prize. But
some of the self-appointed high priests of literary criticism—at "The New
Yorker," "The New York Review of Books," and "The Paris
Review"—are deeply dismayed by "The Goldfinch" and its success.
Amazon Stops
Time Warner Pre-Orders: The Everything Store is shrinking again.
Amazon customers who want to order forthcoming Warner Home Video features are
finding it impossible to do so.
Rowling donates
£1M to Better Together: The Harry Potter creator backed
Scotland's anti-independence campaign, saying she fears for an independent
Scotland in a globalized world.
Amazon Takes
Down Dummy Protest 'Book': Amazon.co.uk has taken down a dummy
book on its website calling for the company to pay its workers the Living Wage.
The stunt, organized by the Amazon Anonymous campaign, placed a
"book" for sale on the online retailer, "Living Wages for Amazon
Workers!," valued at £7.65 - the general Living Wage for the U.K.
Fans Wait Hours
to See Clinton : Hillary Clinton arrived just after 11 a.m. at
Union Square's Barnes & Noble for her first book signing on a nationwide
tour to promote her new memoir, “Hard Choices.” She waved and thanked the crowd
of more than 1,000 people, many of whom had slept outside the store.
